My Poetic Eyes - Meera Darji

For our next assignment, our task was to create a one-minute factual film using web based archive material and to write a poem which reflected our material.

Today, rape is exploited; the word can be associated with terrorism due to its high increase of popularity. In every country, sexual assaults on women are increasing day by day, where the total numbers cannot be counted due to its mass. I wanted to consider how emotional yet gratifying this issue is. Not just in India, but all over the world. We live in a society where we have to teach women to not get raped rather than teaching men not to rape. Ridiculously, this issue is becoming a norm where there needs to be a solid stop. This is a huge deal, where we need our voices heard.
